France Celebrating the Proclamation of the Republic. —_-—__—_—_ [BY caBre 70 THE HERALD.1 i Lonpon, Sept. 23, 1878. A Calcutta despatch, dated last evening, brings very startling news, Coming as it does from a British source, it is matter for grave consideration. It is announced that an officer of the Amecr of Afghanistan, at Alimusjid, refused to allow the British mission to Cabul to go through the Khyber Pass, and crowned the heights which command the pass with his followers. After a three hours’ interview with the officer, in which he warned him that his act would be regarded as the act of the Ameer himself, Major Cavag- nari, commanding the advanced éscort of the mission, returned to Jamrood, and the mission has withdrawn Peshawur. This aids in explaining a significant despatch from Constantinople, which says that the envoy who recently ar- rived from the Ameer of Afghanistan is endeavoring to induce tho Porte to con- clude an alliance with Russia. A special despatch to the Zimes from Calcutta says the main body of the mission to Cabal had’ proceeded as tar as Jamrood. Its feturn thence was telegraphicaliy ordered by the Viceroy. The mission will now be withdrawn, It is fully recognized that the Ameer of Afghanistan is merely the puppet of Russia. The guestion will consequently cease to be treated irom an Indian and becomes a very serious problem of English | foreign politics) The immediste Object of the Viceroy is to make it clearly under- Stood that he has no quarrel with the Afghan peo- ple and to win over all the border tribes. Major Cavagnari repeatedly warned the Afghan officer that the Ameer would be held responsible. The Officer, in the presence of two Indian princes at- tached to the mission, expressed his unflinching determination to forcibly resist the passage of the iaission. Theyeis not a shadow of doubt he is act- thg under full instructions from the Ameer, as two of the Ameer’s responaibie officers, who are also believed to be in direct communication with the Russian Embassy, recently arrived at Allmusjid. ‘The Russfan Envoy 1s still residing at Cabul. YRANCE’S RELATIONS TO EUROPS. The Pans Republique Frangaise, in an article on the unsettled state of Europe, advises France not to enter into any engagements. It says the peril- ous times are not yet over, and still less the era of alluring offers Tne article is regarded a8 a Teply to the revived rumor that England recom- Mended France to take possession of Tunis. Yesterday, being the anniversary of the proclama- ton of the Republic, banquets in celebration of the event were held in Paris and at Bordeaux, Mar- sellles, Montpelier, Cette, Nantes, Lyons and other cities. MM. Louis Blanc and Alfrea Naquet, radical members of the Chamber of Depu- ties, made speeches on the occasion, the former at Paris and the latter in Marseilles. Both set forth the programme of the radical party, the suppression of the office of Presideut of the Republic, the abolition of the Senate and the discontinuance of the budget of public worship, M. Blanc severely criticised the half-hearted policy of M. Gambetta. The newspapers announce that In consequence of new attempts to hold a socialist congress legat prosecutions are pending, and sev eral toreign internationalists will be expelled from France.

DEAN STANLEY. Sermon by the Learned English Divine in Boston, RELIGION AND CIVILIZATION. Work and Man’s Greatness Travelling Westward. God’s ORIENTAL PROPHECIES FULFILLED. —e—__—— [BY JELZGRAPA TO THE HERALD.) ° Bosrowx, Sept. 22, 1878, Dean Stanloy, of London, England, preached at Trinity Church here this morning before a crowdea congregation, He selected for his text Psalms xxxix., 9 and 10: IT take tho wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of tue seu, even the ball thy hand jead me and (hy right baa shail bold me. These words of the psalmist, he said, expressea his belief in the omnipotent power of God, The traveller who passes {rom one portion of the globe to anether finds that the encircling sky which ends to the ocean is but the type of the unseon power which sur- rounds us ali, It is the expression of the sume truth as that which sustained the first navi- gator who, from the shores of Evgland, reacbed the shores of America, that God is on tho seaas on the land, Howard and Wilberforce, Elliet ana Channing, wero alike sustained by the theught that, to the highest types of humanity and in the lowest depths of degradation, God was with their efforts, because in the better part. of every buman being was a spark of the divine! Spirit. The philosopher who endeavors to trace out tue unity of mankind, aod the unity of all creation, consciously or unconsciously, embraces the same truth, But in the special sorm of the words there is Peculiar force, which it is my purpose on this ocea- sion to bring before you. NO LIMIT TO GOD'S DOMINION, The psalmist appreciated that the spiris of which he spoke would manifest itself even in those regions of the earth into which it was least likely it snould pen- etrate. Ho koew that if he took the wings of the morning; it he were to mount on tho radiance which in the Eastern heavens pre- ceeds the rising of the dawn; if he were to follow the run in bis outward course, and pass with him from lavd to ocean until he reached the uttermost part of the sea, far away in the distant and unknown West, even there, incradible as it might seem, tho band of God would jead bim and the right hand of God would uphold him. Even down also “beyond tho furthest horizon of the Western Si would bo foun the Divine presence, ‘to the psalinist jiving in Palesting, in thoso regions which were then not only the sole seat of and kuowledge xlso, this exp the most forcible way of saylug that nowbero in the wide world could be wander away trom the Presence of the Almighty. But in so saying he has, whether intentioually of not, given ulterance to u truth which recsived its fuil confirmation only in the New Testament and 1's tullest realization onl. in tho history of Christendom and of tbe world, fuat which Seemed to him go portentous as to be almost incredi- ible hag become a tumihar, and, wo might almost say, a fundamental, principle of our religious and social existence, Not only in the Kast, consecrated to chal tradition and usage, bui in the unkvown 1 , the power of God is felt. ‘True Teligion is the pot of contact between the East and |. the West, . CONTACT OP THE RAST AND WEST. But first let us observe the actual fact:—The con- trast between the Kast and the West is oue of the mést vivid which Can strike the mind of man. Ot all the great geographical impressions loft on the wind of eveu the moxt casual observer none is deeper than that which is leit where the child of the Western sets foot on the shores of the Eastern World. And 80 in bistory tt bas been observed by a proiound siu- dent that two distinc: streams of human interest have followed always tho ruce of Shem and th: of Jacob, The turuing point, the critical moment in their history, bave been where the two streams havo crossed each other and inet in conflict or in Int) ticth chapter of Isalah the prophet its up bis 0} jd Yeuolus on the one band ail tho nations of the Kast, with all their peculiarities of cus- tom und drese, with their dromedaries and camels, ornaments from Ladia, clouds o! incense from Arabia aud flocks and herds trom the wundoring clans of Arabia and Barbary, coming up to the lighto! Gog, Ali this tas occurred, and, in the most literal sous, bas Leon fullilled. Indeed, we ure hover allowed to forget that Christ our Saviour was bora in an Kasiera nation, clothed in Eastern dress, spoke an Eastern lauguage and was faroillar with Eust- ern style, To the Kast the cuurches of the West have ever turped with peculiar reverence, aod an Eustern homo and an Eastern tomb have been the poluts around which the conflicts of the West, even in our own (ime, have turued, There is an interest with which wo cannot but regard our raco and of oar met the less keen has been left #0 very far vebind us, for the history of religion does not end with the dawn.

PROPHETIO VISIONS IN THE West, Westward, even unto the westward, was the propnet lookiug, when, afier having seen the dromedaries and the camels of Arabia coming toward the Weat, and then turaing to that distant borizoa be exclaimed ,— “Who are these (hat fly us a cloud aod as the doves to their windows’ Surely the {sies shall wait for mo? That is, the isles, the coasts, the promontorie: the creeks, the bays of the Mediterraneun and Atlantic seas, “And the ships of Tarshish first’—inat is, the West, with ali its ships of war, its ships of nationalitios—“ihe shi and tho ship Spain, ich frat brought our own ot i aud) §6Britain within the of civilized world—ail there coming to build up the walls tho heavenly Jerasalom.
